our pentagon correspondent jim miklaszewski has more. jim, good evening. >> brian, defense officials claim these cyberattacks by the chinese government and military strike at the very heart of some of the most critical u.s. weapons systems. the chinese reportedly hacked into front line air defense systems like the navy's aegis and the army's thad systems and the most costly u.s. weapons systems ever, the air force f-35. two years ago the chinese revealed the first stealth fighter jet, which bears a striking resemblance to the u.s. f-22. the fear is the chinese will use this stolen technology to build their own deadly high-tech weapons or produce defensive systems that could easily defeat u.s. weapons. the cyber attacks were not aimed at the pentagon but the private contractors who produce these weapons and the pentagon is now assisting those contractors in tightening up their cyber security. meanwhile, the chinese deny they're behind the cyber attacks. nobody here is buying it, brian. >> jim miklaszewski at the pentagon for us tonight, j
